Re: (with the links this time) 3 silent videos on You Tube and call for collaboration.

["Jeff Duke" <jeff_d@embarqmail.com>]

You all might remember this email awhile back from "Emile Tobenfeld (a.k.a 
Dr. T)"
I really love these videos and was inspired to try improvising while 
watching one of them.
I downloaded the source file as an mp4 from youtube and added the 
soundtrack 
after recording in
Sony Vegas. I liked the result and asked if I could post it. He graciously 
said yes even though he hadn't heard it yet. The soundtrack is guitar 
w/sustainor-Fuzz Factory-Bad Monkey-Dl 4 analog delay set almost to 
runaway 
feed back-DD 20. I only did one take and this is it. 9:23 is a long time 
to 
play with that much distortion and delay to keep on a leash. It was scary 
playing it.
Thanks to Dr T for allowing me to use his video. It really set me in the 
right mood. But don't blame him if you don't like it.
